Let's chant PEOPLE!!!!

snow, Snow, SNow, SNOw, SNOW

SNOW!!!!

OKAY, I HAVE MADE MYSELF LOUD AND CLEAR?

There are officially 3 days left in February and that means that there is officially 3 more days of winter so....if mother nature wants snow....then LET THERE BE SNOW!!!!! (and a day off from work of course) but once March 1st gets here, I want to hear the joyful sounds of chirping birds, the vibrant colors of newly bloomed flowers and the sun shinning brightly, bringing a little bit of vitamin D to my skin.

So do you understand???

I accept whatever snow you give us tomorrow morning but as of Sunday, March 1st - NO MORE!

XOXO

Shall I dare??

Shall I dare get my hopes up?  Should I actually believe that the weatherman is correct with his 5-8 inches of snow forecast?  He said the heaviest of the snowfall will fall between midnight and 6am.  So will we wake up with a butt load of snow or just a dusting.  I'm already banking on the butt load so I better not be disappointed.

Cody's school has already closed for tomorrow.  So now it's just a waiting game for daycare and work.  So fingers crossed!

Why oh why did I schedule a MRI

Why oh why did I schedule my MRI....on my Birthday?

Was it because I was trying to ignore the fact that I'm turning a year older?  Cause seriously who schedules that kind of appointment on their special day?

Was it because I've had the order for a month and I got nervous about waiting for so long and made the appointment?

Was it all of the above plus when I made the appointment, the 12th was the only day available therefore I took it?

Yup, all of the above.  And to make my birthday even more fun, I scheduled Cody's dental appointment too so I get to spend the majority of my Birthday in doctors offices.

Sound like fun?  Not really.  Excited about missing most of the work day? Nope.  I'm too stressed to be excited. 

Red Band Society

I know it's just a tv show but boy watching it tonight just brought tears to my eyes, knots in my stomach and my heart is heavy. 

I actually watched it during the fall and I guess over the holidays it must have went on a holiday break and as we celebrated Christmas and New Years, I kind of forgot about it.  Then mom came over to the house for a visit.  I was looking through the channels trying to find something of interest for her to watch when I came across it.  Oh my gosh, how did I forget about this show?  So I taped it.  And of course forgot about it again.

Then this Saturday, I was surfing through the channels and what do you know, it was on again.  So I taped it again.  Now it's Sunday and although the weekend was full and productive I was tired and ready for bed.  But at 8:00pm all I could think about was why am I going to bed so early?

So I decided to go downstairs and what do you know, I remembered that I taped my show and thought, lets watch it and clear out the DVR.  I didn't know what to expect.  I haven't seen the show in weeks.  Where did I leave off.  Would I even be interested?

Of course it sucked me in and although I do really like the show, last weeks episode 1/31/15 was especially hard to watch.  The patient got a transplant and his body rejected it therefore causing him to die on the show.  Which to me wasn't shocking to kill off the character but it really tugged at my heart strings.  At the same time, another character's cancer came back.  Which seriously made me think about life, my cousin, and myself.  Cody and I just had a conversation the other night about me having cancer and how lucky I was to survive.  I can't help but to be so happy that I lived.  But I also can't help to think about how and why?  I don't want to question it but why was I lucky?  Is there something else I'm meant to do in the future?  Or will it come back and I have to live this nightmare over again? 

Anyway, good show, lots of tears and tough to watch tonight.
